COVID-19 Booster Shot Is A Scam, World Health Organization (WHO) Asks Nations To Stop It

The COVID-19 pandemic is certainly the worst phase of our lives that we have experienced but the good thing is that slowly and steadily we have defeated this lethal virus by following the safety protocols properly and by getting vaccinated. However, it will take a good amount of time for all of us to recover from the turmoil that we have gone through in all aspects whether it was emotional, physical or financial.

The vaccination is going at a very good pace all over the world but there are still some countries where the speed of vaccination is not going on at a good speed.

The vaccinations for COVID-19 have been administered at a good pace in the developed countries but there are many developing and underdeveloped countries where majority of the citizens have not been vaccinated because of which they are still living under the fear of COVID-19 pandemic.
